What new sound would that be?

As far as I'm aware, their sound is as whiny and generic as ever ;)

😂 I was trying not to be mean unlike yourself but the way it was said it was like they produced groundbreaking music!

Robbie Williams has some serious promotion lined up, while i dont like any of the material from the album that i have heard and wont be buying the album myself its worth mentioning that he knows how to market and promote an album and many other could and should take a leaf out of his book.

 

If only it were that simple. Such huge promo is only granted to very few.

The utter irony of a twenty one pilots fan calling anything 'whiny'. :lol:

It's true that Before The Dawn isn't available to stream. I'm not sure whether the album would benefit from streams of the studio versions of the track, though I presume those would be relatively few anyway.

 

Surely that wouldn't comply with the chart rules? Or would it? The tracks on Before The Dawn are unique tracks; live recordings from 2014. If you could clock up streaming points for those tracks by playing the original studio versions, that would seem daft to me, but I suppose you could argue they're different versions of the same songs, for the purposes of the singles chart, rather than the albums chart. Anyone able to clarify the rules on this?

I've checked the chart rules (probably should have done that before) and whilst streams can be attributed to multiple studio and one Greatest Hits album, live albums are explicitly excluded from that so only live versions count. It's not totally clear what happens when an act has multiple live versions of the same songs but that doesn't apply in this case anyway.

 

It's Page 9 of this if you wanted to check: http://www.officialcharts.com/media/650607...es-may-2016.pdf

Thanks for that.

That is pretty clearly defined, isn't it?

I am interested to see have Little Mix in any way stretched their lead in the albums today.

No idea what their lead is, but I've been told the girls are on 49k now. Great second week sales tbh! Looking at 55k week, outselling DNA's and Salute's first week sales in week 2!

Little Mix are killing it right now, I think this will keep selling great over next few weeks could past 100k one week on lead up to Christmas as I am pretty sure an x factor final performance is going to happen for them.

I think the album should easily sell in the region of 400,000+ by year end.

But they won't stop Adele from doing a Simply Red

As per last week there was a slight slowdown for Little Mix on Wednesday/Thursday but will be surprised if they don't have enough to secure the top spot tomorrow.

I think the album should easily sell in the region of 400,000+ by year end.

This would be an excellent result given "Get Weird" sold 388,593 in 2015, it would definitely indicate a stronger era (ie not just because they got to number 1 this time).

 

:wub: my fave gif of Jade ever tbh.
